Mr. Ce H. Campbell. 

Can you get up a plan of the pole lines at Mt. Carmel, 
which will show the number of cross arms for each pole, and the 
number of wires run thereon. I want these for Rich who is not 
very well posted, and who desires to obtain the information in 
order to start work at Mt. Carmel as quickly as possible.

1883. Electric Light - Thomas A. Edison Construction Department - Stations - 
Pennsylvania - Shamokin (D-83-060) 


This folder contains correspondence and other documents relating to the 
formation, organization, and construction of the Shomokin central station, which 
began operation on September 22, 1883. Much of the correspondence is by Edison 
employees William S. Andrews and Thomas P. Conant and by William H. Douty, 
president of the Shamokin company. Some of the correspondence by Andrews is 
partially illegible due to water damage. 


All the documents have been filmed.

1883. Electric Light - Thomas A. Edison Construction Department - Stations - 
Pennsylvania - Sunbury (D-83-061) 


This folder contains correspondence and other documents relating to the 
installation and operation of the central station and electric light system in 
Sunbury. The Sunbury station began operation on July 4, 1883 as the first 
commercially installed three-wire system. Many of the documents deal with 
problems of wiring the plant. Much of the correspondence is by Edison employees 
William S. Andrews, W. D. Rich, and Thomas P, Conant; and by officers of the 
Edison Electric Wluminating Company of Sunbury, including Frank H. McCormick, 
president, and Frank S. Marr, secretary and treasurer. Some of the letters by 
Andrews are partially illegible due to water damage. Some of Rich's 
correspondence is also faint and may be difficult to read. 


Approximately 90 percent of the documents have been filmed. The following 
categories of documents have not been filmed: routine correspondence regarding 
orders, employee expenses, and routine financial transactions.

Williamsport, Pa., Dec. 8, 1883. 
Samuel Insull, Esq. 
Dear Sir:- 

In reply to yours of the 5Th inst. inquiring as to what 
the experience of the Edison Electric Tllumminating Co. of Sun- 
bury has been, I would say; we have now been running about threo 
months, are wired for 330 lights and have contracts for 100 more, 
which will be put in in the course of the next Month, and from wi 
what is said by the consumers we think that inside of a year from 
htis date we will have at least I,000 lights burning; we have 
thus far confined ourselves exclusively to stores, hotels, R.Ro 
Stations and other public buildings, we expect that we will be 
compelled to double our capacity when we commence lighting pri- 
vate dwellings. 

The estimated daily expense of running the plant, ac- 
cording to statement furnished to me by our treasurer, Mr. Marr, 
is $7,04 and we are now, with only 325 lights actually burning, 
earning four per cent, on our capital stodk, over and above all 
expenses. As the expense will not be increased to any appreciable 
extent when we are running to our full capacity we expect, and 
with good reason, to be earning at least 20 per cent, on the cap~ 
ital stock within the next year. 

Our consumers are very much pleased with the light, and 
in no instance have any one of our lights been taken out, or fail~ 
ed to give satisfaction, and this in the face of the strongest 


opposition from the Gas Co. 


A ae . 12 2B-j2-aK 

The Gas Co. has eut 75 per cent, in its prices and has 
offered special inducements to the heaviest consumers, and not- 
withstanding the fact that wae have kept to the price we first 
charged, viz. $2, 50 per thousand, they have not succeeded in tak- 
ing any of our consumers from us or prevented us from getting any 
new consumers that we wanted. 

The stockholders of the Co. are very well pleased with 
the results thus far, and look forward to large dividends in the 
near future. 

Very ,espect fully Yours, 
Frank H..MeCormick.

1883. Electric Light - Thomas A. Edison Construction Department - Stations - 
Pennsylvania - Williamsport (D-83-062) 


This folder contains correspondence, agreements, lists of stockholders, and 
other documents relating to the construction of the Williamsport central station 
and to the organization and management of the Edison Electric Illuminating 
Company of Williamsport. This company also acted as an agent for Edison in the 
organization of other Pennsylvania companies. Much of the correspondence is by 
John R. Campbell of the engineering department and by P. B. Shaw, who served as

Williamsport, Pa., November, 1883. 


Dear Sir: 

Every consumer of light is interested in securing the best possible light at the least possible 
cost. Assuming that you admit the correctness of this statement, I beg leave to call your attention to- 
the organization known as the Epison Erecrric ILLuminatinc ComPANY or WILLIAMSPORT, 

This Company fas secured a charter, the rights and privileges to supply to the citizens of Williams: 
port electricity for the purposes of light, heat and power. They have caused a canvass of the city to be 
made, and have ascertained tlie best paying district to supply with light. They have secured an estimate 
of the total cost to erect, complete, an electric light plant of the capacity of 3,200 lights, with sufficient con- 
ductors or mains to carry. 4,000 lights. They have obtained a license contract of the Edison Electric Light 
Company of New York, for the sole and exclusive use of the patents of Thomas A. Edison, for the city of 
Williamsport. The original capital of this Company was ten thousand dollars ($10,000); this has now been 
increased to one hundred: thousand dollars ($100,000). The license contract with the Edison Light Com- 
pany of New York requires the payment by the Williamsport Company, Ist, ofa sum in cash equal to five 


(5) per centum of its capital stock; 2d, certificates of stock, fully paid and unassessable, equal to thirty (30) 
per centum of its capital ;, 3d, an annual royalty of $2.00 per horse power actually used in generating elec- 


tric currents for the supply of light, heat or power. The cost to erect and complete the entire plant, ready 
to connect consumers, is fifty-three thousand dollars ($53 000); the cost of the central station lot is two 


thousand dollars ($2, per)

capacity above mehtioned, : ne ri a in 








sand ee 





The object of this circular and the foregoing statement is to place fairly before the public of Williams- 
port this proposition, namely: That it is proposed that this Company shall be absolutely 2 consumers’ 
Company, provided the consumers desire to avail themselves of the Opportunity offered; and if not, that 
they shall reject the first privilege of subscribing to the capital stock at par, intelligently; and for this reason 
Task the careful consideration of the following estimated expenses and profits of the enterprise: 

Steam power, when generated in any considerable quantities, say not less than too horse power, costs 
something less than One cent per hour per horse power. , Under the Edison Incandescent system, not less 
than 100 candles power of light is generated for each horse power of steam delivered to engines; 100 can- 
dles of light subdivided into ten candle Jamps, and sold to the consumer at the rate of one cent per hour 
for each lamp, equals exactly the cost of, coal: gas at 52.00 per one thousand feet. This shows a net profit 
to the Light Coinbany of nine cents upon, eVery one’cent of out-put of electric current. The above does 
not includé‘repairs or depreciation on plant.or interest on investment, but it does include engineers, firemen, 
fuel, oil and waste, &c. Let us assume that repairs and depreciation will cost one cent per hour per horse 
power, (which it will not.) and we still have cight cents net profit on a cash commercial commodity costing 
one cent, Let us put it in another way: 800 ten-candle lamps, burning at an average of three hours per 
day, (a low average,) and selling the light at the rate of $2.00 per one thousand fect of gas, will more than 
pay the entire running expenses of the 3,200 light plant, running at full capacity for the same average hours 
per day, and give a surplus of over five per centum upon the actual cost of the plant fora depreciating fund, 
Therefore, if the entire capacity of the plant of 3,200 lights can be operated at a cost to the Company, 
including depreciation, for the receipts of 800 lights when selling the light at the rate of $2.00 per thousand 
feet of gas, the gross receipts from the remaining 2,400 lights will constitute the earnings upon the invest. 
ment, Now, if the stock is all held by actual consumers, they will not only have a light superior to any- 
thing yet introduced, but two-thirds of thé gross payments for the light actually consumed will be paid in 
dividends upon the investment, pro rata,.to cach’ individual holding capital ‘Stock. This would make the 


actual cost, to the consumer of light; if a stoctcholder, equivalent to gas at one-third of two dollars, or 663% 
cents per one thousand feet, These facts may be startling to many large consumers of light, but they are 
nevertheless true..- There are no secrets in the purposes. of the Williamsport Illuminating Company, and 
nothing which they wish to withhold from the public; and as all consumers are invited to subscribe to the 
capital of this Company, all are entitled to know the estimated cost and the probable ‘earnings of the enter- 
prise. It is unnecessary, in this circular, to comment upon the superiority of. the Edison Incandescent 
Light as compared to any other illuminant, for the reason that the people of Williamsport have had an 
Opportunity to witness the light in praotical ‘use since March last, in the stores of .D, S, Andrus & Co., 
Little's jewelry store, Lloyd & Co., furnishing goods, the Ulman Brothers’ clothing house, and at the office 
of the State Agent, and are fully conversant: with its safety, purity, steadiness and brilliancy, and the 
absence of ‘heat, smoke, noxious gases or other objectionable features,’ 


The Company as now organized consists of P. B. Shaw, State Manager of the Edison Electric’ Light

The Directors are: H. C. McCormick, W. L. Parker, J. AL ‘Beeber, B. H. Detwiler, John B. Coryell, 
William Gibson, and P. B, Shaw. As soon as all the stocke ‘is subscribed, a meeting of ‘the stockholders 
will be called, and the election of a full Board of Directors ‘will then take place. 

The above is as full a statement of what has been and is proposed to be done in the matter of 
installing an Edison Incandescent Electric Light Station at Williamsport as is possible in a circular of 
this kind, and it remains now with the consumers to say whether they will give the enterprise their sup- 
port, thereby securing for themselves a better, safer and chespet light than it is possible to obtain under 


any other system, and share in the earnings of a commodity of-which they must of necessity become 
patrons; or whether they will continue to pay tribute Yo th 5 i o have no possible interest, in, common 


with them, and whose only object is to obtain the higitest?passible price for the poorest possible. light. 
Consumers wishing to subscribe to the capital of the Williamsport Company can do so by making 
application to any one of the present stockholders,

1883. Electric Light - Thomas A. Edison Construction Department - Stations - 
Wisconsin - Appleton (D-83-063) 


The folder contains correspondence and other documents relating to the 
construction of an extension to the Appleton plant and the expansion of the original 
central station district. Among the correspondents are George H. Bliss, general 
superintendent of the Western Edison Light Company; Aug. Ledyard Smith, 
president of the Appleton Edison Electric Light Company; and Charles H. Cooke, 
who conducted the canvass to enlarge the original hydro-powered system, which 
had been installed in 1882. 


All the documents have been filmed,

Replying to your favor of the

the Edison light, at Appleton, whieh is $2.50 to large 
constmers and more to small ones, 

Sincerely yours,

There is no building of any kind whatever on the pro- 
posed sxpykk site, there is some doubt as to their getting it , 
as it is now in litigation, and I think it will be settled in 
about thirty days. On the bridge, on the north side, 500 feet 
south west of the present station, they can get power, but it will 


be nore expensive than the proposed station, This lot, is 25 x50, 


There is:> no wheel or shafting in place, They propose to move 
the two K dynamos to the central station, - Fron what they say, 
plant 


they want an estimate for erecting an xgtimeaie complete,

To vie Srocknonpers ov tHe Western Enison Liar

I am instructed by the Board of Directors to submit to

The Company was organized May 13th, 1882, but did

tive months. ‘

The residences of Messrs. Jones, Sears, O. R. and Edson 
Keith, Dent and Marshall Field are being, or are to be, sup- 
plied with light from the plant installed on the premises of 
Mr. Doane, the total number of lights in the six residences 
being about 700. 

In addition to the above we have several propositions 
now pending from which we have reasons to hope for posi- 
tive orders within a few weeks. 

Notwithstanding the heavy expense incident to the start- 
ing of anew business, the Company since the date of its 
organization has not only been able to meet its expenses, but 
has, in addition, earned a fair profit on the money actually 
invested, . 

The plant designated in the foregoing as“ District No. 1,” 
is that in operation at the General Oftices of the Company, 
Nos, 51 and 53 Wabash Avenue, Chicago. 

We found it necessary to establish this plant to fully 
exhibit the light, so that it might be investigated by those 
wishing to order plants or to organize sub-companies. 

We have from this plant run wires into adjoining build- 
ings and are now selling light to eight different consumers. 

The revenue which we thus receive will, we hope, in 


time, as the plant is extended, meet the whole expense of its 
operation, 

The Best Brewing Company’s plant, Milwaukee, was put 
in by this Company on a lease for three years, at a monthly 
rentul of two hundred dollars, with the option of purchase by 
the Brewing Company at any time during the continuance of 
the lease, at a price which will yield a fair profit to this 
Company. 

We meet with frequent opportunities to install plants 
upon some such terms as these, and this class of business 
would yield a large and certain profit to the Company. 

The objection to it is, that it ties up a large amount of 
our enpital. 

Should we decide to increase our business in this direction, 
it will become necessary for us to make further ealls upon 
our stockholders. 

Among our early customers was the Davenport Gazette 
Company, of Davenport, Iowa, who purchased a dynamo of 
small capacity, for the purpose of selling light to several par- 
ties in the immediate vicinity of the Gazette Building. 

When the light had been mstalled, the Gazette Company 
discovered that under its charter it could not mannfacture 
and sell Tight. 

‘An association of the same purties was therefore formed, 
under the name of the Davenport Electrie Light Company, 
to which was transferred all property rights in the plant. 

This company has recently closed a contract with us, 
whereby we replace the small machine originally purehnsed 
with one of double the capacity. 

On getting to work under our contract with the parent 
Company, some of the provisions of that contract. were 
deemed to be unequitable and the officers of this Company 
have been in negotiation with the officers of the parent 
Company with the view of getting modifications in it. 


The parent Company has met us in a spirit of the utmost 
fairness and liberality, and I am now happy to report that 
the contract has been so amended as to more fully meet with 
our wishes. 

Among the benefits accorded us in the amended contract, 
is the allowance to us by the parent Company of a larger 
percentage of the bonus to be received from all sub-com- 
panies organized, and also from the Edison Company tor 
Teolated Lighting, the exclusive ageney on the basis of an 
equal division of net profits, to occupy the non-gas territory 
within our present territory. 

Asa result of these negotiations, this Company, without 
any further payment in cash or stock, becomes the sole repie- 
sentative of the Edison Incandescent Electric Light System, 
within the three states of Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin, on 
fair terms. 

These concessions in our original contract and the ad- 
ditional franchise for the non-gas territory, in the opinion of 
the Board largely enhance the value of our stock, and basing 
our estimate upon results already accomplished in the first 
few months of our organization, we may safely predict, that 
the next six months will produce results gratifying to the 
holders of our stock. 

No sub-companies have yet been organized, as the Officers 
of our Company have preterred to await the amendment of 
our contract befvre pushing work in that field, but that hav- 
ing now been accomplished, there is nothing te prevent our 
going forward in that direction, and at several points the 
preliminary negotiations have already been made, and we 
have good reason for the belief that we shall soon, be able to 
report the organization of several sub-companies on a basis 
exceedingly favorable to this Company.

Dear Sir? . 
. Your explanation ‘of the ‘position occupied by 
the Fdis0On Machine Works toward the Fdison companies ~- as 
contained in your favor of ‘the 7th inst - is very satis- 
factory. ; ; : 
While we have mever refused to honor the drafts 
made on us by the Machine Works we have, in the majopity 
of cases, felt that the urgency with which such drafts 
were made or requested was somewhat overdrawn. * 
: As stated in my former letter, the practice is 
so widely at variance with the general experience of our 
business men it has been very difficult to reconcile them 
to the idea of having payments, as well as the light, 
made by electricity. 

However, as Mr Fdison expresses it, the business 
is anew one and immediately available’ funds are a nec- 
essity to the prompt filling of orders, and until] such 
time as it becomes more firmly established as a paying 
enterprise we shall not seriously complain of the method 
of “conducting it. - 

We trust however you will crowd us as lightly 
as possible in the matter of payments.

Dear Sir: 

In reply to your favor of the jJ6th will say 
the Milwaukee Flectric Sight and Power Company, which con- 
trols the Weston Are and Maxim Incandescent Lights is 
operating a fifteen light Maxim plant in connection with 
its central station; : ‘ : 

At Janesville, Wis., the Mc lain Woolen Millis are 
using a Maxim plant of fifty-seven lights; 
The Janesville Sotton Mills use J50 Maxim lights, 
having one 100 and one 50 light Maxim dynamos. 
; In “hieago, Davidson and Sons, Marble “orkers, 
are using a fifty light Maxim plant; 
’ Bradner, Smith and Sompany, Paper Dealers, are 
running @ 100 Jight Maxim plant. . 
; They have had some lights in the Safety Deposit 
Vaults of the 1st National Bank in this city. 
We have just closed a contract with the First 
National Bank: people to supply their main floors and 
Deposit Vaults, which will throw out the Maxim jJights, 

: The Jst National Bank building has been recently 
erected and is said to be one of the finest banking 
institutions in the United States. 

Bradner, Smith and Go, are using some of the 
incandescent Jights from their plant and are selling two 
or three of ‘their neighbors a smaj]_ number. 

From what we can Jearn I doubt if they have 
ever run the full complement of Jights from this dynam, 

The light does not seem to he very satisfactory. 

The United States people are very active in this 
region. - 

Wherever we go. either to sel] a plant or organize 
a company they are on our heels immediately and offer 
all sorts of inducements to parties, 

This is very detrimental to our work and is pute 
ting it back a good deal. 

We may in time overcome the difficulty, but ‘for 
the present’ it is very serious.

The Davenport Gas Gompany has made a contract 
with the United States people and proposes intr oducing 
the Weston Are and Maxim Incandescent Jights immediately 
at that point. 

The Maxim people are going to make a very good 
showing of the light at the Railway Fxhibition here. 

They have a thirty light chandelier and other 
fixtures in position. 

The fixtures are apparently manufactured by Mitch- 
el], Vance and Sompany and are very creditable, 

; The wiring which they are doing is very poor 
but stil] superior to any other work we have éver seen 
them do. 

They talk of an exhibit of from 200 to 300 
lamps. : 

Aside from the plants named herein we do not 
know of any other Maxim lights in operation in our 
territory, but some may have been overlooked by us. 

It is a very serious element in the way of 
progress in our business unless thev can be squelehed by 
Jitigation, until they are crushed out by the superiority 
of our light, generators and appliances,

T. Ae Edison Esq. 

Dear Sir’ 

Our Railway Exposition Plant is operated from 
a. Porter & Allen engine. 

They furnish the power without expense tO us = and 
in view of the large expense attending the exhibit 
our people thought best to make the arrangement. 

There is a large fountain in the center of the 
main building and we have placed [50 lights on it 
within the spray. 

This has not been an easy job but Tf am glad to 
say that the attempt isa perfect success, 

We started the fountain on the 28th but our in-. 
Sulation round the sockets of compound and paraffine 
was imperfect and a good many lamps were lost, 

Yesterday we treat®&D: the wires and sockets to 
a coating of rubber cement and the lamps worked to a 
charm last night. 7 

“This fountain is the most striking dnd handsome 
thing in connection with the Exposition and we are 
much gratified. 

We find by starting up the lamps gradually that 
Dette breakage need be apprehended from the spray which 

continually dashing against the lamps. 

The enemy thought we were in a fix but found out 
to the contrary . 

J. A. Fay: &@ Go, of Cincinnati have a large 
machinery exhibit. and we are lighting it. 

Arc lights are burning directly over us but do 
no injury to the service we render, 

j Now .if Bergmann & Co. will give us ‘two nice 
Electroliers I shall begin to think that we are in 
fair shape. ' : ' 

; If power and steam can be obtained we shall prob 
ably put in a 60 light dynamo to show the different 
candle power:. Edison lamps, : 

Please show this letter to Maj. Faton as it will 
save writing another and we are short of ‘he p in the 
of fice.

Thos, A. Edison Esq. 

Dear Sir’ 

Your favor of the 4th was duly rec’d, 

The Electric Railway at the Exposition has been 
used a little within the last two days and has 
carried two or three loads of passengers round the 
track, 

Up to today it has not been opened to the 
public. . 

The track was poorly constructed - The trucks 
under the car seem to have been ill adapted to ° the 
curve round which the car must pass, 

They complain that the steam from which the 
electromotive is %@ «ba supplied «4s not sufficient wet 
the dynamo -zts driven from a Westinghouse’ engine, 

I heard yesterday that power is to be taken 
from a corliss engine. and a larger driving dynamo 
put ine a 
The commutator om the motor was badly cut up 
the day I rode on the electromotive but not enough 
to prevent operations, 

The whole arrangement seemed ¢rude tO me compared 
to’ your machinery at Menlo Bark,. 

I think however that the electrical part with 
proper management ought to have worked were it not 
for the mechanical defects. _ 

The United States people are making ‘the Exposition 
a National affair so ‘far as they are concerned, 

They are constantly adding some fresh feature. 

Their President has been here and they have - 
at least fifteen men on-duty all the time. 

As near as T can ascertain they have loat 
four armatures from one of their 40 light dynamos, 

I understand they have lost one armature. fron 
another 40 light dynamo, —- 

They have lost one armature from one of their 
incandescent dynamos, j 

They are up to all sort of tricks and to ate 
tempt to refute their many falsehoods is out of the 
question. ‘ 

They are doing an immense amount of advertising 
and TI -will send all the papers to Maj. Eaton s0 
their statements may be understood, 

This company is doing all that is reasonable to 
make the Fdison exhibit a success but with our Jim

ited terrztory we cannot be expected to wage a 
national fight. 

The Commission are in hot water about the awards 
and show no disposition to go into anything more 
than a surfaBe investigation. 

We do not intend this shall be the case in 
electric light matters. 

I think you should’ send on WB Howell at once 
with his apparatus so that we may know what tests’ 
ought to be demanded and be prepared with the appa- 
ratuS. ‘ ; : 
The Weston; people are running their lights very 
high and burn about 80 lights from what is cajled 
a 200 lights dynamo, 

I want to get this Exposition matter into as 
good shape as possible before going to New York but 
as seon as that is done shall go on, : 

Any accurate information which you can send 
about the lights on the Brooklyn bridge will be use-~ 
ful just now, ‘ 

If you can tell me the name of one person killed 
or seriously injured by the United States are light 
current I can prove the President of the U. S. °60. 
to be a liar in the public press. 

Please give me the facts in such ga case as soon 
as possible, ; 

Please notify us when Mr Howell will come and 
we will try to get the committe on award on electrical 


_matters appointed and ready. to act by the time he 


arrives. oo. 
The Exposition closes on the 24th so there is 
no time to lose. : 
Please have Bergmann hurry forward that large 
electrolier,

Dear Sirt- 
Your favor of the 23rd. is at hand, 
It is impossible for us to give you the exact truth in 
regard to,the removal of the Maxim Lamps , every morning 
at the Railway Exposition, 7 
Our men were not placed there as spies upon that Co,, 
but they understood it to be a fact during the latter 
. part of the Exposition, that the Maxim Lamps were changed 
AS , 
SE daily. This conclusion was reached from their own casual 
Observaton, and from what others , who had good opportunity 
<4 of ‘observing, told’ them — 
Ts 


The United States Co’s, Manager here , flatly contradicted 


this statement last week, much to my surprise, and we are 


not in position to swear exactly what was done, = 
Xe i == 
ae :” However , we know that on Saturday Morning, the last day 
NO : 
coy of the Exposition, they put an entire set of new lamps 


in their 92 light Electr@lier and that during the day 


27 lamps gevVe out and were replaced, 





The man who watched: this Electrolier was absent a part 
of the time, so they may have replaced other lamps which we 


did not count.

Your Favor ie recent date making 


inquiries in regard to the gas plant at RR was duly 


received. Nees . nears 
I called at once upon Mr Pullman and at his suggéstion, 


submitted the questions to the chieB clerk. 

The Wlerk as IT am now informed , made detailed answers 
to the several questions and Mr. Pullman who was then 
just starting to New York, has taken them with him, 

Mr. Pullman’s New York office is in Broad street and he 
has asked me tO say that if you can make it conv eni ent 
to call upon him there , that he will be glad to give you 
all the information in his power, 

We have regrets from all sides, that your stay in 
Chicago was sO short, as many people were anxious to meet 
yOu , who had not the opportunity. 

I hope you will favor us soon again , and that you 
will give yourself time enough to look more thoroughly 


over our field and see more of our people.

Your Canvasser should go first to Davenport Iowa, 

William Renwick,. or Geo, H French, are the parties 
for him to see there. 

From there, he should go to Appleton, 

Ur.-H. J, Rogers, or'A. F. Smith, are the parties to 


see theré. From there, he should go to Neenah. 


We will have the names of the parties to see at Neenah, 


“sothey can be obtained from Mr Rogers at Appleton,or 
they may be communicated to you in time by myself, 

From there, the Canvasser can go to Milwaukes and s¢e 
Oe R. Haékins, of John S. George. 

From therey to Racine and see Mr Lewis of Mitchell 
Lewis & Co, . 

We shall have plenty of othe work for him to do, 
if these cas go through, a . 

T regard it as bad policy, to work up interest in a 


town, unless the party can have immadiate attention.

After the interest has once cooled, it requires three 
times the effort, to revive ag&in. 

Another pointis, that the opposition goon get advice 
where we are #ovRing and come dnto the ground to interi:fere, 

This frequently distracts negotiations and makes then 
long winded, although we always win in the end. 

Our intention Gh ant to send a man to Davenport, 
to in any way interfere with your representative, but 
to learn all we can to assist us.in future operations, 

The situation and the people in our towns, are so 
Well understood by us, that we can save him sonsiievante 
trouble and expediare. matters by being present, 

We appreciate the importance of getting a Central 
Station plant under way, in this territory and are working 
hard to accomplish this, 

Our wish is to have you do the work on the first 
towns fitted uP, but we ought to be given every opportunity 
to acquire Puld-dnforie tion; s0 as to understand the best

Mr Thomas A. Edison,

Dear Sir? . 
In reply to your favor of the 18th will say, 
the precise location for the central station at Appleton 
has not been determined. 

There is some power at a central point which 
was indicated to Mr Gooke when there, which ean probably 
be rented or purchased, 

Tt is at present under litigation and there has 
been an unexpected delay in arriving ata price, 

A few days since, the Appleton Company wrote 
Gen St ager and asked him if he would loan the funds to 
Make the purchase. , 

Gen Stager is now absent in the mountains with 
President Arthur and party so nothing has been done in 
the matter. 

Wherever the power is located a cheap building 
will have to be put up and the wheels and shafting put 
ine 

It is probable the Appleton parties would prefer 
to do this themselves as they are experts in such matters, 
so in making up your figures this’ can be left for them 
to do, P 

We will try to get the position of the proposed 
lot located on the blue print and forward to you soon 
so your estimate can be made out. 

It -iS ppoposed to move the two K dynamos to 
this central station and utilize them in connection with 
the plant if. you deem it advisable. 

If moved they expect to use the three wire sys- 
tem 

Will’ get the sizes of wires used between the 
dynamos and different points lighted and report to you at 
an early date ,with the other information asked for, 

Yours truly,

T paid a visit to ‘endota Jast week and con-

Special provisions in the eontraect that the peonniary 
success of the enterprise will bo Jikely to suffer if 
their ideas arn carried Out. 

tt is therefore probable that the HMencota matter 
will’ be delayed until the- local parties are willing to’ 
have the transaction coneluded itn conformance “with ‘the 
ideas of this company, : 

One of (the awembers of the “Mendota company has 
Biven the snbgeet of eleoctrictty considerabia study and 
has inflated himself «ith the idea. that he ean instal}

Dear Sir: YG - 
Replying to your Goce wilt \ the 21st “ofp Kret- 





that the automatic regulator is sv !valupbDe “in cdntrd)ling 
the candle povser of Jights, an@“tfdecreasing bréakage of 
Jamps that we would not think of operating any IJlarge 

Flant vithout it. 

There are however some difficulties which we frould 
like to ovVercoine. 

Io understand there has been complaint elsevhere 
that the SFring in the relay magnet getssS weak. 

‘ The trouble about which we wrote you is that the 
candle power gradually runs up vhen the regulator is in 
use which would indicate either that the sprigg grew 
stronger or that the .nagnet weakened, 

Ne do not see how the suggestion you iaake that 
the magnet coils gradually increase in resistnace, voving to 
temperature holds good, 

Our greatest trouble is at the Daily News vhere 
they have 2a 150 Jight dynamo, whith runs constantly ex- 
Cept about six hours each week, 

The room where the regulator is placed is hot, 
but the temperature is unifora, 

Ne have moved the magnets up to armature once 
and have gradually Jet out the spring until it can go 
no farther without changing sconstruction, 

We have had the sane torduble in a less degree 
e] Sevhere. . 
We wil] give you our future experience, but mean- 
while shall] be glad to have a remedy for this special 
difficulty. 

The Bell] f[ndicator which we have in Haverly's 
Theatre has operated perfectiy so far as the relay magnetx 
is cOncerned, for a year without change of adjustinent. 

The same principle is involved in thes imagnet as 
in the automatic regulator, 

; We use Only the lamps on the 8el] Indicator, as 
the bell] portion seems to be of no use,

Dear Sir? 

Ve are having a great deal of trouble «swith 

Our armatures . : 
The commtator bacs frequently raise or 
Jower, which causes sparking and sueh heat as to injure 
the insulation on sires. 
We are doing Our best to master the difficulty 
but the discouragement is great. 

A 250 light dynamo on which we have sixty 32 
eandjJe laaps, the balance of the load being 16 candle la 
Jamps refuses 6° carry its Joad, 

This dynano nas earriea 250 16 candje lamps

We are thinking of ordering an ampere indicator 
for use in connection with the plant at the Best Brwery. 

This is an installation of eight and sixteen 
candjJe lamps and a 250 light dynam, 

There is a considerable number of Jamps in excess 
of the capacity of the dynamo, | 

Would you advise us tO wuSe one on such a_ plant

troubles from any other places that amount to anything.” 

Your favor ot the 24th is now at hand, enclosing 
Mr Solden’s Jetter, which we return herewith, 

We are not familiar with the whole field, but 
judging from the defect sheets receivea here, and informa- 
tiop from other sources, this is not the only territory 
where trouble is experienced with dynanms, 

You have repeatedijy requested me to report al) 
defects in apparatus tully, no matter wkkexs where from, 

We have endeavored to do this always in a fair 
way, hoping the facts would assist you in perfecting the 
apparatsu,.

territory, with many plants in operation - some of them 
having run a Jone time; Furthermore, these pjants are 
not under our control, 

Tf the dynamos were run by our men or men 
selected by us there would be Jess difficulty, 

The average engineer, especiaJ)Jy if he has: other 
duties to perform, oftentimes neglects a dynamo at a 
moment when with a little care, trouble would be avoided, 
but once started disastrous results follows, 

AS a rule electric Jight plants increase the 
duties of engineers without additional compenstaion and they 
wil] beat the electric Jight plant if permittea to do so, 

A great many of our aynamo troubles come with 
plants where a number of Jamps have been installed in 
excess ot the capacity of the dynamo, 

Notwithstanding explicit specifications in our con- 
tracts as to the number of jJights to be bynned at one 
time the dynamos are often abused, causing troubles for 
which the pruchasers themselves are alone responsible. 

We have now adopted the rule of never installing 


mre Jamps than the rated capacity of the dynamo, 


We have some plants in use where the service is

It is my cpinion that the capacity of the dyna- 
mos furnished has heen over-rated when such Service is 
required. . 

I know that a 250 light dynamo wil] of'ten burn 
even 300 Jamps for a  Jimited time, but my experience 
is against their capacity to carry 250 Jights ten hours 
continnousiyv, 

The greatest trouble we have with dynams comes 
from the aising of commtator bars when hot resu)ting 


in their sinking when cool,

The dynamo certainly has not done wel].~ w 


\ 
; att 
Restdes the hars raising and sinking it has’ been 


hot enough twice to wnsolder wires and burn insulation 
On end of the wires, 

This dynamo has had a good deal of gitantion 
and inasmuch as we have run commitators nearJy two years 
without a thing being done to them I believe we know 
how to take care of them, 

The Davenport repaired armature went direct to 
the Davenport -Flactric light Company who could not make 
it work, although one we Joanead them did well, 

In trying to make it work they undoubtedly broke 
off the knife blade between the bars, 

This, however, does not prove it to have been 
received in food order, 

Tnasmich as two other repaired armatures came back 
to us in bad condition we felt warranted in making a 


complaint. 
I. sha})] be heartily Blad when our machinery is 


Concentrated in central stations under competent management, 
TIsojJated business wil} always be a great annoy-

Being the juror of the Electric Light tests who 


made all the observations oi .the behavior of your 16 x 
36 in, Automatic Cut-off— Engine, driving the Electric 


_ Light machines during said tests, I am glad to say for 


your information that I had occasioy to take a great 
many diagrams from your engine, and to note the gen~ 
eval performance of your engine as to uniformity of 
speed, etc., and I am pleased to say that the behavior 
of your engine has been all we could desire, 

We had, on several occasions during the tests, to 
throw off a load of 20 H. ®., instantaneously, and on 

_as suddenly, and the variation in the speed was only a 
stall fraction of oie per cert. 

‘The total load on the engine during the tests was 
zaq H. P., and when the whole load was thrown off the’ 
‘increase in speed was only 2 192 per cent, 

I am, gentlemen, 
Yours truly,

1883. Insull, Samuel (D-83-067) 


This folder contains correspondence and other documents relating to Samuel 
Insull's role as Edison's private secretary, along with occasional items pertaining to 
his private life. Letters addressed to Insul! in his capacity as Edison's secretary or 
representative that do not fall under the main subject categories are generally 
filed in this folder. Some of the documents for 1883 concern the installation of 
central stations. Numerous other letters addressed to Insull, which relate to a 
specific subject or to the business of a particular company, can be found in their 
appropriate subject folders. 


All documents that provide significant information about Edison or his 
companies, along with a few significant pieces of Insull's personal correspondence, 
have been filmed. Routine correspondence relating to the various Edison 
organizations has not been filmed. Included in this category are routine letters 
pertaining to bookkeeping, the ordering of supplies, and the shipping of materials; 
letters of introduction; and requests for Insull to act as an intermediary with 
Edison. 


Most of the documents relating to Insull's private affairs have not been 
filmed. Included in this category are personal correspondence and accounts 
unrelated to Edison's activities; information about Insul!'s membership in clubs and 
societies; documents relating to Insull's role as a caretaker for the estates of 
various Edison associates, such as Edward H. Johnson and Charles Batchelor, while 
they were overseas; and correspondence pertaining to Insull's buying and selling of 
electric light stock. 


Approximately 30 percent of the documents have been filmed.

ticularly to gather, by personal study on the ayound, detailed 
information and knowledge of the work he is to perform hereaftore 

I have given him letters to Mre Edison and Maj. Faton,

My Dear Rageous 

I wrote you asking if I could engage another 
canvasser and you have not replied, We have a number of towns 
that should be canvassed, and although this work is getting on 
considorably ahead of our ability to take care of it in the office, 
yet I think we should put as many canvassers in the field as are 
necessary to satisfy our agents, Three weeks ago I did-not think 
the business justified it, recent developments lead me to the con- 
clusion that it does, We shall also require another map man, 
I an sure that the one man now here cannot take care of all our 
map work, He has just finished the map of Erie, He has now got 
StPaul, Renovo and Bellefonte to deal with, The Hartford canvass 
will bo here to-morrow, Minneapolis canvass xu a day or so after, 
and Pittsfield and Louisville soon after that, We have got 
Elysville, Utica and Erie maps waiting for you to red line, so that 
they can go to Menlo, others will quickly aidew, 

I telegraphed you the other day asking you what I should 
do about regulators and switches for the Louisville Exposition, 
You have not yet answered xkmy telegram, You see there are 
piles of matter requiring your attention, and I am very anxiously 
looking forward to your return, else I am afraid the plaster will 
grow so ner ntbly thick that it will be set hard in our stomachs. 

Ir eee got an order from the London Company for two 
13 x 13 engines for the Criterion Theatre,london, Sims has 


undertaken to ship them before August first,

I have cabled Bailey as you have suggested and hope that 
will result in an order, 

The Isolated Company sent an order to the Machine Works 
for one 100 light machine, Rocap wrote asking me whether the’ 
Isolated Company thought we kept a toy shop. I went to Hutchinson 
and Hastings, insisting on an order for ten, and got it, ‘and they 
have undertaken to pay cash on delivery, . 

The London Company sent a remittance for $4,000 to pay 
for the two engines they ordered, This greatly relieves the fin- 
ancial plastor, which has been getting horribly thick, sinee I got 
back. 

Eaton has gone off for a holiday of two or three days 
with “8. Postmaster General and two or three Sther Sysias: 

Brewster has got back from St.Louis, The people there 
have bought a lot for the central Station, and we are dead sure 


of that contract sometime next Fall, 

Moore, I tnink, 1S going to get Left on his engines ror 
Louisville, he is going down to Providence to see about them, 

I wish you would go for Hanington bald headed. He has 
rendered me a bill for $6'7,05 for work done at the central station. 
I suppose we will have to pay the bill, but I ‘Look upon it as a 
geandaa. If I had my way I would charge Mr Sprague with it, as 
I presume most of the expense was incurred owing to his little 
escapade with the engine, Even taking that into consideration, 
the bill had no business to be any such amount as Creel Z Lk

REPORT of the DIR#CTORS 
TO THE STOCKHOLDERS of tha ENISON ORK MILLING COMPANY, LIMITED, 


Made at the annual meeting held January loth, 1883, 


At your last annual meeting a raport was submitted to 
the stockholders of the progress made vith the separation of iron 
or? from the sea shore sand ut Quonocontaug, Rhodes Island, and also 


with tho general business of the Company. 


It appeared from such raport that Mr fuison was carrying 
on experiments regarding the milling of gold and silver bearing 
ores; also that many enquiries were being mads for our Magnetic 
ore sepzrators. Some of thes? experiments on gold and silver 
bearing orgs have bean liade at Menlo Park under Mr Edison’s direc- 
tion, but oving to pressure of business, he has not yet bean ablo 
to accomplish much in this direction. He has, hovevar, mada sov- 
eral inventions as to the separation of magnetic or2 and of free 
particles of gold, for which patents are applied. We have also 
received & great number of enquiries as to th3 capacity &c., of 
the mapnatic ore separators belonging to this Company, to which 
the fullest replies have been given, but we have not as yet succoed- 
ed in disposing of any machines. So that except for our ore sep~ 
arating works at Quonocontaug, R. I., mentioned below there is very 


little business to report for the past year. 


2 

It also appeared in the last annnal raport that Separat- 
ing works had bean established on the sea heach ut Quonocontaug, 
Rhode Island, and that a quantity of iron had already been separat-— 
ed and sold. At that time we had just secured ovr first muetarae 
for this ore, namely, the Ponghkeepsie Iron and Steel Company. 
We had already sold them a earpio of iron, which had given such 
satisfaction that we received from tham a further order for 200 
tons, pending the shipment of which a proposal Was Mads to us to 
enter into contract with then to supply them vith all our product 
at the rate of about 200 tons per month. About the time wa vere 
ready to ship 150 tons of tha order above spoken of, in fact gust 
as the vessel wus about to start for th? beach, we received ordars 
from the Poughke23psie Company, not to ship this ordor. On anyuir 
ing into the cause of their rescinding this order, we found that 
they had burnt out their furnaces, were in financial difficulties, 
ana Rad closed their works at Poughkeepsie Therefore, nsgotia- 
tions with them were at an end. Ye thus met with a great draw 
back. This was the only Customer we had, and this one had been 


obtained after a preat deal of troubl2> und some expense 


Th2 reason of this lack of demand for the ore was and — 
is that the ore is in such small particles und reyuires so great 
a heat to melt it that it is not possible to vork it in an ordin- 
ary furnace, and can only b?2 smelted in a furnace of special con- 


struction. 


3 

The or? which should have be2n shipped to the Poughkegp- 
sie Company vas thus throvn on onr hands ana ws were compelled to 
seek another market for onr product. Panding our attempts in 
this matter, we had to keep on part of our working foree at the 
beach, so as to be ready to start up at such time as a demand could 
be created. Yo also sent a preat number of samples to iron and 
ste2l manufacturers all over the country, not only to procure an 
immediate market, but also with the intention of creating a very 
large demand for this ore, in ordar that there might also be a 
demand for our s32parators in different parts of the Country. 
All this, of course, mad? it necessery to sp2nu money for our 
pay roll at th2 heuch anc for hauling the samples to ths nearest 


railway station, about Gi miles away. 


After sone time, we received an order from Messrs. Shimer 
& Company, Philadelphia, for 30 tons of ore, as a sample. They 
at the sume timo asked us to onter into a contract vith them piv~- 
ing them the option to take 700 tons more within a specified tine 
(30 days) at $9. per ton. Inasmich as v2 were informed that thaso 
were pood parties, and as we d2asirad to pet a Gontract for a defin- 
ito quantity of ore, v2 uccapted such contract and shipped the 
sampls 30 tons. Than came another period of waiting and andeav- 
‘oring to soll more ore. At tha expiration of 30 days Messrs. 
Shimer & Company reyuested 30 tons mora for a further trial Serore. 


ordering a large quuntity. This also was shipped und ws apain 


4 
waited. We were informeu, hovever, about the expiration of the 
time that they could not use this ore, and wo were thus thrown 


again on our rasonrees to fina a mark et. 


With this end in view a great number of people were 
seen and samples sent ont, and efter suna time we obtained an ordar 
to ship 50 tons of or2 to the American Swedes Iron Gonpany at 
Rockaway, WN. Je Prepurations ‘vere Imad? to ship this carpio, and 
the vessel went uovn to the beach for th? iron, but parted her 
cable and went ashor? on th2 rocks and was lost. Another vessel 
vas obtained and the iron shipped. This last vossel, however, 
only got us far as Stonington, whan it vas Gisvovered that sho 
was leaking badly and coule not fo any further. Then came an- 
other transfer of the cargo to still another v2ssel, by which the 


iron was at langth delivered. All this, of course, meant dalay 


and exp2ns 2. 


In the meantime, as bafor?, our pay roll and sone other 
minor expenses had to be mete Then after the or? was received at 
Rockaway, the Americun Swedes Company said that it was not eyval 
to sample,and that they coulda not take it. This involved the 
necessity of s3nding for our Supsrintendent from Rhode Island to 
meet them and demonstrate that ve had shipped the ore accor di ng 
to our contract and sampls. He came on hare and went to Rock- 


away and after some trouble succeeded in bringing than to uc- 


capt the ors 


The American Swedes Iron Company smelted the ore in their 
furnaces, which are specially designed for ores of this character, 
and wer? so well pleased with the results that they ordered another 
cargo of 50 tons 4 week if this shipmant was pfood. Th? ore 
was delivered go them, and they egain objected to it us not being 
in accordanee with their sanpl3. This sample was on3 which they 
claimed had been givan by us to thom and was entirely clean. It 
was so cl2an that our Superintendent and others gav2 it as their 
opinion that it had been cleaned with 4 hand magnet. Our cargo 
of 50 tons vas not as clean as th2 sample@® but was as we agresd 
to furnish it. Th: upshot of this nutter was ufter another visit 
of our Sup2rintondent to them, that we came to the conclusion to 
Make a redvetion on the pric? of the ore, rather than go to the 
expens2 of moving it away ané running it through the separator 
apain. This decision was also based on ths fact that these peopl? 
s2emed disposad to give a great “deal of trouble and did not pay 
prompeiy besides, on the last visit of our Superintendert to thoir 
works, h2 sav that thair mills were stopped and they ware doing 
no, work. This was not during the recent strike in the iron trade, 


but soon after. 


Our experienes vith the American Swedes Iron Gompeny, not 


ofly with these two cargos of ore, but for some time previously, 


6 
warranted us in coming to the conclusion that we should not be 
justified in attempting to do further business with them, as they 


have besn uncertain and not to be depended upon. 


Inasnmmich, therefore, as v2 had no other customers for 
ore, and it being uncertain when 4 demand therefor would exist, 
it has been thought best to closes our works at Quonocontanug, bring 
back the separator to New York, and so conclude the business of 
separating ore oursalves. This has been dona, and our expenses 


at Rhods Island are now at an 2nd 


In cormencing this undertaking in August, 1581, we were 
assured by paople.in th: iron business that there was an unlimited 
market for all the ore we could procure, and it was thought that 
we conld realize the money invested, together vith a profit. Our 
separator hau not at that tims bean practically tested. It is 
trna that Mr Edison had made a great number and variety of tests 
at Menlo Park, und the machine had also been worked on the beach 
at Quogue, Le 1., for @ short time, but none of these tests had 
demonstrated ‘vhat work the separator wus capably of doing when it 
came to be run week in and week ont on a comercial basis. It 
was thought both nacessary and desirable that an experiment should 
b2 made to furnish us with such data, and therefore, the operations 
at Rhode Islund wers commenced. At the start and until after the 


first cargo of iron had boean shipped, thers dia not appear to be 


7 
much difficulty in obtaining a market for our ore, and we? axpected 
to make a profit of abont $4. par ton, but our market failed as 
above set forth and sales hecam2 spasmodic, thns puthing us to ex- 


pense withont being able to rowlize any immediate returns. 


Apain, wa have been placad und?r nearly every possibls 
disadvantape in our operations at Rhode Tsland; we “ere G miles 
away from the nearest railway station, «na 10 miles away from the 
nearest lurge tovn. Nauling was expensive and not always to be 
obtained, v2 had no harbor or inlet in vhich to load vessels, our 
beach being ripht on the ocean and -vithont shelter of any kind. 

It has for this reason been difficult to pat a vessel toe taekaa 
earpo from the beach. In fact ther? have been an innumerable 
host of petty details,,annoyances, and drawbacks connected with the 
operations at Quopocontang, which apart from pecuniary matters, 
have been met and overcome with no small degree of patience and 


enerpy. 


Notwithstanding all those cisadvantages, however, we have 
Inade a4 practicul demonstration of what cun he cons vith the Edison 
Ore Separator, not only in regard to how meh ore can be separated 
in a dav and at what expense, but also in regard to the best meth- 
od of setting up the necessary machinery to bs wrked in connec 


tion with the separator. All thes conelnusions have been arrived 


s 
at, hovever, by means of numerons experiments, the cost of which, 


is included in the plant and running expenses at Quonocontans. 


It should be said, that if we had had a repular markot 
for our separated ore, ve could have made a profit of about $3.50 
or $4. per ton, even after taking into consideration all the dis- 
advantages under which we were placed at Quonocontaug. It was 
upon this basis that the Plant was kept in existence, and the ex- 
penses continued for so long a tine, for th2 reason that if wa 
could at any time hefore closing have found a remllar market for 
all our product, we conld have realized 411 the money.we have spont 
and possibly made a stots besides. The difficulty is not with 

a 
the ore, as that is of the best yuality, but there is not,furnace 
in existence which will successfully and continuously smelt this 


ore, both on account of its fineness and of its being exceedingly 


hard anc tough 


We submit herawith u summarised statemant of the money 
spent on these exp3riments at Rhode Island and of the Money receiv- 
ed from sales of ore, &e. This statzmeant shows the expenditures 


to have been as follows:

It is not without a fesling of repret that your Board has 
felt obligad to coase opsrations «et Quonocontaug without: having 
at least realized enongh from the sale.of ore to pay back the 
money invested. Such is the fact, however, and aftor the most 
strenuous efforts which have been made to interast possible pur- 
chasers of ors, ana efter the diligent enyniries which have been 
made to find a suitable furnace in which to smelt the ore, both 
without success, we have deemed it most expedient for the best in- 
terests of the stockholders to close out tha husiness and save any 


further expensa. 


10 

Wa believe, however, that curing tho present year there 
will be a number of separators rayquired for large deposits of 
magnetic iron in Ganeda and olsewher> Mr. Edison also believes 
that during the present year he will b2 abla to devote some time 
to the continuation of his experiments for the profitable milling 
und treatment of low-grade silver and gold orgs, in which, if ha 
is snecessfnl, thera vill be a future of vast profit for the Com- 


pany.

New York, February 6, 1883. 


To the Stock-holders 
Spring Vatitey Hyprautic Goto Co. 


GENTLEMEN: — 
I beg to lay before you a brief statement of the past year's work, and regret that it is not of « more satisfactory nature, 
* Since your last meeting, the production of the mine has been$227,967.41, ($16,000 of this will be cleaned up on March Ist, but goes to 
the credit of the past year) at a profit over mining expenses of $68,850,95. It was confidently expected, that, before this, we should have fully felt 
ary opening in the gravel at the mouth of this 





the benefit ofthe new tunnel, but it has taken very much longer than anticipated, to make the nec 
tunnel. It was at first decided to make an opening all the way down to bedrock, but a very hard cement was encountered, which rendered this 
impossible, and a cut had to be run instead. : 

: : Although this tunnel has been finished for nearly a year, it is only since November that the gravel at its mouth was sufficiently opened 
up, ,to allow of profitable working. With the tunnel in full working order, and an increase of our water supply by a third, there is no doubt but that 
weatall obtain much larger results. 

f, For the first six months of working the ground through the new tunnel, we only obtained $16,000, whereas during the past six months 
and during only about 24g months of this time could the tunnel be worked to good advantage; the production was $53,000. Yor the first 
i s only 15 cents, whereas during the last six months, owing to the greater facility of working as the 





named period the yield per inch of water w: 
opening becarttg larger, the yield was 39 cents. ‘There has been considerable outlay during the past year for necessary and permanent improvements, 

i the new flumes on the Butte Creck and Con Cow ditches have cost $8,624. Tor mantaining levecs, $tz 926, which includes $2,767 
for Brush Dam to retain our debris and $1,015 for new and sub-levees, We have paid for Jand on which to dump our lighter debris $12,000, (this 
land will eventually be worth all, and probably much more than we have paid for it), Paid for mining ground $7,600, for new ditch and pipe to 
connect onr increased water supply with present system, about $12,000, making a total of $53,150. No such outlay will be necessary for the coming 











year. We also expect to materially reduce our labor account at the mine, which been very heavy for the past year, on account of the large number 


ine, and in other places where said labor can now be dispensed with. Our 





of men employed in making an opening to new tunnel up Saw Mill Ra 
Superintendant recommends the immediate starting of drifting operations in portions of our ground that cannot be worked by hydraulic process, and writes 
that it will be a source of great profit and revenue tous. This will receive our earliest attention ‘The indebtedness of the Company is as follows: 
Bonds sold $124,000, floating debt in New York, $33,000, and in California about $165,000. (The accounts for January not yet being to hand) which 
latter amount will be reduced by $15,000 on March Ist. I believe that the next 6 or $ months’ profits will go far towards extinguishing the 
greater portion of this floating debt. 

It may however be necessary to procure money in the meantime for running and other expenses. Of the above indebtedness, say 
$307,000 in all, about $160 ooo is for account of the United States Mining Investment Company, we having been compelled to carry that amount 
for them and for which we hold Spring Valley Stock as collateral. ‘I'he debt proper of our Company including bonds sold is but about $147,000, 

For any fuller information, 1 beg to refer you to the Supzrintendent’s report and statement accompanying my report, In conclusion, 
gentlemen, [ will say that although we have thus far been very much disappointed in our expectations, tie~Trustees still have the greatest confidence 
in the future of the property, and believe that now for the first time we are in a position to prove its value, and receive substantial results. 

‘Taking into account our increased water supply, and the greatly improved character of the gold bearing gravel in Saw Mill Ravine, I 
see no reason why our gross product for this year should not largely exceed that of the past, and Iam confident that our drifting operations which 
will be started as soon as possible will also largely increase the production.

“SPRING VALLEY 


| HybDRAULIC GoLp COMPANY 


REPORT 


OF THE 





SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF STOCKHOLDERS 


NEW YORK 
May, 1883 





SPRING VALLEY 


HypDRAULIC GOLD ComPANY. 





REPORT OF THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF STOCKHOLDERS 


APPOINTED TO DEVISE A PLAN FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE COMPANY ON A PAYING BASIS. 


HE COMMITTEE, appointed at the Stockholders’ Meeting of the Spring Valley Hydraulic Gold 
Company, held on the 3oth day of April, 1883, submit the following report : 


The object for which your Committee was appointed was “to devise a plan for the establishing of the 
Company on a paying basis, and to relieve it from its present financial embarrassment, and that such Com- 
mittee confer with the Trustees as to the plan recommended by them, but that they be not confined to the 
carrying out of said plan, but consider any feasible plan.” — o-oo 

Mr. Dennen, one of the gentlemen appointed on the Committee, sittcnded the first meeting, and then 
resigned, on account of his living out of the city, The Committee took no steps to fill his place. They 
have held several meetings, and have examined the accounts and records of.the Company, and have con- 
ferred with the Trustees and other officers and with some of the largest. stockholders, At their request the 
Secretary of the Company has been recalled from California, and the books of the Company have been 
written up to May 1, 1883. A majority of the Committee has caused the books of the Company to be 
examined by Mr. William Calhoun, a professional accountant, whose report is herewith submitted, and 
they have made themselves thoroughly familiar with the history of the management of the Company and its 
financial troubles from the date of its organization, 

Your Committee would state that while the production of your property has not realized the sanguine 

_ hopes of its friends, the present difficulties of the Company are largely due to the fact that your property 
came into your hands, in March, 1880, embarrassed by a mortgage of $100,000, which was in no sense a 
debt of this Company, and that all of your stock was paid over by the officers of the Company to the 
vendor before a good title was acquired by this Company. 











4 


Subsequently an agreement was entered into by your Trustees with the vendor, the United States 
Mining Investment Company, by which the said vendor acknowledged its liability on the mortgage, and 
your Company agreed to assume $195,000 of indebtedness of the vendor (being the amount of the mort- 
gage [$100,000] and $95,0v0 which the-Mining Investment Company had borrowed on its unsold stock), 
and also agreed to carry said stock (51,300 shares and 15,000 shares already held) until January 1, 1884, 
and not to sell until then at less than $10 a share. In return for these agreements on its part, your Com- 
pany received a bonus of 5,000 shares of said stock and the right to sell the remainder after January 1, 
1884, at any price, and apply the proceeds to the payment of said indebtedness, This agreement was 
afterwards partially abrogated, 

Your Company has, in the meantime, been working the mines in California, and has been applying 
the proceeds to the payment of running expenses, the payment of the principal and interest’ of its in- 
debtedness, the construction of a working tunnel, the purchase of necessary property and other improve- 
ments, 

As to the value of the property, Mr. Walker, the Secretary of the Company, who has just returned froth 
California, and Mr, Waldeyer, if he arrive in time, will give you some interesting particulars, ‘The property 
is to-day undoubtedly more valuable and in a better condition for working than when it was first purchased. 
The total receipts from the mine, from the organization of the Company to May 1, 1883, have been, in 
gross, $571,046.62. The working expenses, exclusive of permanent improvements, are, we believe, about 
$11,000 per month. 


Your Committee submit also the following statement of the accounts of the Company up to May 1,1883, 
handed to them by the Secretary of, the Company, showing in detail for what its indebtedness has been 
incurred, its amount, and the persons to whom it is owing, 

Your Committee would state here that their employment of a professional accountant to examine the 
Company's books was not done by them because they thought that the books had not been properly kept, 
but simply because, in the absence of the Secretary in California, and on account of the pressure of their

The Company has on hand 23,500 shares of its own stock, which have been received’ from 
time to time from the United States Mining Investment Company, and there are 10,009 shares, 
also received from the United States Mining Investment Company, out as collateral, making 
33,500 shares, of which 29,000 shares are subject to an agreement with the United States 
Mining Investment Company. 

The other assets of the Company consist of the amount of $161,694.10, due from the U. 
S. M. I. Co., and the property and appurtenances, The latter cannot be made to appear in the 
accounts at any pfice near its cost or value, as onlya nominal value of $200,000 was paid there- 
for. Any statement, therefore, of “assets and liabilities’ made from accompanying Ledger 
Balance would be merely nominal.

Having obtained these figures and other necessary information, your Committee proceeded to con- 
sider the various plans for relieving the Company, submitted either by its own members or by the Trustecs 


or stockholders of the Company. 


They have eadteasated, in their deliberations, to secure that any plan they might recommend should 


contain the following among its main features : 


I. That the indebtedness of the Company should be seed in such a shape 
pressing for payment.

Il. That the Trustees should be relieved from all personal liability in the future management, and 
from the necessity of using their private funds and personal credit for the benefit of the other stockholders. 


III, That this be done without material injury to the present stockholders. 


IV. That the Company acquire immediately for the benefit of the remaining stockholders all the 
rights of the Mining Investment Company in the stock of this Company, and without thereby releasing 
more of the indebtedness of the Mining Investment Company than is equivalent to the market value of the 


stock obtained, 


Your Committce believes that the following plan embodies all of the above features, and is the only 
feasible plan which is equitable to all the stockholders, large and small. 


—_—— 


PLAN FOR THE RELIEF OF THE OWNERS OF THE SPRING VALLEY HYDRAULIC 
GOLD COMPANY FROM EXISTING EMBARRASSMENTS. 


1. Organize a new corporation under the laws of the State of New York, with a capital of $500,000, 
divided into 00,000 shares of $1 cach. : 


2, In consideration of 470,000 shares of the stock of the new Company, and of the assumption by it 
of the existing debts and liabilities of the present Company, let the existing Spring Valley Company trans- 
ferand convey to the new Company all its property, and undertake and agree, within a time to be limited, to 


secure subscriptions for the remaining 30,000 shares of the new Company. 


3. Let 270,000 shares of the stock of the new Company be transferred by the present Company to one 


or more Trustees as security for the performance of this agreement, to be disposed of by him or them as 
hereinafter indicated. 


4. Let the remaining 200,000 shares of the stock of the new Company be issued, share for share, to 
the holders of the stock of the present Company, on the surrender of their stock. 


s. Let each stockholder in the present Company, and, in case of his refusal, such other persons as may 
wish, as provided in paragraph 7, be offered the option of purchasing a portion of the reserved 30,000 
shares of the stock of the new Company, at par, proportionate to his holding of the stock of the present 
Company, and upon such purchase let the Trustee or Trustees above named transfer to him a pro rata por- 


tion of the 270,000 shares set apart, as above specified, in the ratio of nine for one, 


6. Let the new Company place a mortgage upon all its property to secure bonds, bearing interest at 
10 per cent. per annum, to an amount equal to the-present debts and liabilities of the present Company; 
such bonds or their proceeds to be used solely for the purpose of discharging such debts and liabilities. 


7. Inasmuch as a large number of the shares of the stock of the present Company are now owned 
by or pledged to the present Company, let the present Company transfer so much of the stock of the new 
Company as would properly be issued in lieu of this stock to such persons as shall purchase or accept the 
bonds of the new Company in the proportion which the whole number of such shares bears to the whole 
amount of such bonds secured by the mortgage, with the privilege attached of purchasing the proper pro- 
portionate part of the reserved 30,000 shares of the new Company, as mentioned in paragraph No. 5. 





1o 


8 Incase the whole number of the bonds of the new Company should not be placed, then, when all the 
debts of the present Company shall have been discharged by the new Company, let the stock still held by the 
present Company be disposed of as the new Company shall direct, 7 


9. If any stockholder of the present Company neglects or refuses to avail himself of the right to sub- 
scribe to the stock of the new Company, as mentioned in paragraph 5, let any other stockholder of the 
present Company who desires it avail himself of that privilege, If no other stockholder desires it, let that 
stock be open to public sale with its attendant rights, 


a ee ee 
This plan is equivalent to putting an assessment of fifteen cents a share on the present holding, or ten 


cents a share on the new additional stock to be issued, and will put into the treasury $30,000 cash, and it 
gives to all paying said assessment two and a half shares of the new stock for every share of the old stock 


. now held—¥. ¢., it leaves every one with the same proportionate interest with the Company that he had 


before, The amount of the assessment is so small that it is believed that it will not bear hardly on any 
stockholder, 

The only objection to the above plan is that it cannot be carried out without the consent of all the 
stockholders. It may be that this cannot be obtained ; but your Committee believe that the stock is so held 
that the expenditure of a little time in tracing it will enable the consent to be obtained, and the plan is so 
fair to all that your Committee think that an attempt should be made to carry it,out, 

Your Committee would also recommend that the Trustees of the Company be requested by the stock- 
holders to make such arrangements with the Mining Investment Company as to cut off the U.S. Mining In- 
vestment Company from all their tights in the stock of the Company, by virtue of any agreement heretofore 
made. 

In recommending this plan to the stockholders, the Committee would also urge. that it be kept in mind 
that unless it or some similar plan be adopted, the result may be a practical wiping out of the stock of the 
Company. 

The Company, although in possession of what we all believe to be a fine mining property, is to-day 
practically bankrupt, depending for its continued existence on the fact that its Trustees have carried its 
debts up to this time on their individual credit and responsibility. 

Its capitalization is such that its Trustees are each personally responsible for a large excess of debt over 
the amount of the capital stock. This position they are naturally anxious to be relieved from, and your 
Committee would therefore recommend an increase of capitalization by any plan which will be just to all 
parties, ; ‘ 

If this plan, or a similar one, be not adopted, there will be no means of providing for the payment of 
the mortgage coming due in July, 1884, and a foreclosure of this mortgage will wipe out all the stock,

SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT. 


Since the meeting at which the foregoing report was submitted and ordered to be printed, the Commit- 
tee has held several meetings and has had a conference with the Trustees of the Company. 

The Committee is assured by the Trustees that the plan set forth in said report cannot be carried out, 
because they say that the consent of every one of the stockholders cannot be obtained. 

At the conference, therefore, with that fact in mind, and as a compromise between divergent opinions, 
it Was agreed between the Committee and the Trustees that an increase of the capital stock by ro0,o00 
shares was the next most feasible plan to the one recommended by the foregoing report. 

While your Committee still think that an attempt should be made to carry out the plan originally pro- 
posed, yet they wish here to state that if the stockholders are unwilling to vote for such an attempt, or, are 
adverse to the plan itself, the only thing remaining to relieve me Company from its embarrassment is an in- 
crease of the capital stock. 

If this be done, and the increase be limited to 100,000 shares, making the total capital stock 300,000 
shares, the position of each stockholder may be approximately shown by tlie following statement ; 

The owner of roo shares would retain his present interest by purchasing 50 shares of the new stock at 
$1.00 per share, 

If, however, he purchase 100 shares of the new stock at $1.00 per share, he doubles the number of his 
shares, while the capital stock has been increased by fifty per cent. only, This fact ensures that there will 
be no difficulty in placing the stock.

During the discussion of the plans above mentioned, the question arose as to how the moneys to be 
raised would be applied when obtained. Your Committee suggested to the Trustees that it would be well to 
ascertain this fact beforehand, since a large portion of the floating debt of the Company is owing to the 
Trustees themselves, 

In reply to the suggestion of the Committee, five of the Trustees have written a letter, stating that, 
while they consider the moneys advanced by them to relieve the Company from its embarrassment ought 
rightly to be paid first, yet that they assure the stockholders that they “will apply the money first to the 
payment of the pressing demand debts in California.” At the same time the said five Trustees have placed 
their resignations in your Committee’s hands, to take effect as soon asthe reorganization of the Company is 
completed, in order that the Board of Trustees in the future may be certain to represent the feeling of the 
stockholders.

1883. New York Laboratory (D-33-069) 


This folder contains correspondence, test reports, and other documents 
relating to Edison's New York laboratory, located in the Bergmann & Company 
factory building. Most of the documents are by Edison's associate, John F. Ott. 


Approximately 90 percent of the documents have been filmed. The following 
categories of documents have not been filmed: routine correspondence with 
suppliers; routine intraoffice communications.

Pres’ t.dison Electric Light Co., 
-65 Fifth Ave.,New York City, Ney. 

Dear Sir; I have heen unable until to-day, 
owing to the pressure of other matters, to net the copies of the 
patents about which we had an interview on Tuesday last in New 
York. I send copies of the ten patents -so ‘far pranted Gey Mh, ask 

We have some fifteen eipieetiens now pending, and have made 
further Peventieus toward perfecting, the systems we have oripina- 
ted, for which improvements we are about to apply for patents. 

The nature of these applications and inventions we eiadnt 

: We / 
course, disclose at this stage of,nepotiations betveen us. The 
majority of the applications now pending are for batteries per Se; 
and after an interference - necessitated by oversight in the grant 
of Sellon’s Baeoue of June 14 1e82,while our application was pend- 
ing - which interference we must oid. we will ast a pareneer the 
so called Sellon, or Sellon & Volckmar !battery, considered in 
England the best one so far devised. 

The Faure batteries, brought over by the Steamer Labrador, 
as well as those which we gaderstene are being meade in Boston by 
the Faure party, differ in some imontaat respects from. that pat-— 
ented to Faure in this country as well as abroad, and these changes 
or improvements were first made by.us, and eee embodied in an 
application prior to the introduction pa CR COUN ey of any 
Faure batteries whatsoever. The sae gaate aes building will, 
therefore, be covered by the patent we must ultimately obtain. 

The application in which these features are involved embodies other 
matter, and is objected to as showing several inventions. Various 


delays, atong’which is #@e timidity on the part of the Examiner 


in pranting the claims we ask, has caused this application, filed 








nore than a year ago, to be kept in the Patent Office without 
good reason. 

My associate, Dr Starr, has made radicai{ now departures from 
the style of batteries devised by Faure, Brush, and Sellon, and 
that shown in the application I have above alluded to; and while 
the claims we will have upon the Plante’ or Faure type si bateee 
will be valuable as a weaponsof siiese still we pet outside 
entirely of the Faure patent and those granted to Brush ,by the 
invention of forms of batteries, which are not only radically new, 
but are better, we think, than those of the Faure type. How much 
better we are not as yet able to say but that they are more 
eiipeey? we have demonstrated by actual comparison with Faure 
batteries which we ourselves have made. for the purposes of exper 

iment; and also with Faure batteries BRS by other parties, 
‘so that we might not deceive ourselves by some defect in the con- 
struction of those we ourselves made. 

The Railway Pe tenes speak for therselves; omnate the claims 
in the patents granted to us in July last,on the system of lipht- 
ing by the use of angeeatise es,will indicate the scope of our in- 
ventions in that direction. ‘These July patents we seen the 
most valuable of any we have by reason of their scope, 

Nr. Brush in his newspaper claims, which we have not seen fit 
to notice in that way, willfully and knowingly prevaricates, and 
by his overt acts in New York haS, as I understand his demons tra- 
tion , actually invaded our rights. I have not been aple to pet 
at. the actual arrangemont of his devicegat that Waisestratson; put 
if his apparatus was disposed, as I understand it was, then there 
is no questien of his infringement. He makes no bones about 
proposing f.o infringe, but whether this is *yunkum to effect the 
Brush, ie on really what he proposes to do -I cannot say. 


Before you have your attorneys examine these matters I must

reiterate what was said to you in New York. Unless you are pre- 
pared to pay the price we aSk it will he simply A waste of your 
time, as well as that.of Sees: to conduct further nepotiations. 
Time is very valuable to us now, and I nmust‘therefore limit you 
to one week within which to examine the patents and make up your 
minds upon the subject. We have put off other saetica who have 
nade a handsome offer until that time, If you decide toquleeneas 
these patents and inventions, 1 (bersonal1y} will be glad to aid 
you in any way possible, by the preparation of the applications 
not yot. propared, (of course at your cost and charpge,} or by 
explaining the matters fully to your solicitors, who at understand ,

patent therefor. granted in this country and in England. The 
benefit of my study and research will be at your service when

Dear Sir: ; 


Mr. Lowrey -directs me to call your attention to his letter 


‘to kr Edison of December I5th relating to enquiries to be made 


of Miivou;F.. Adans, George L. joi evi and others , prospective 
witnesses, ‘in the case of Welch v. Edison. 

‘Rave these enquiries been made? Tt is important, be- 
cause tho time for taking depositions ig probably limited in Massa- 
chuaette. 

~ Mr. Lowrey also directs me to enclose to you letter of 
Messrs. Hale & Waleot of Jan. 8th. which you will please return to 


him with dtreetions as to how he shall answer the question con- 


cerning removal to the Batted States Courts. He decidedly agre¢vs 


with Naeeses Hale § Waicott that MR Edison’s defence in that case 


is so largely dependent upon equity that it will probably be an 
advantage to be in the United States Gourtay 

<— oir ‘Lowrey has found one Massachusetts case ee his 
return from Boston which satisfies him that the State Courts are 
less Liboral than the Federal Cou rts in such eases. 


If you will send an angwer by telephone in respect to 


the removal, Un Lowrey can write at Once.

Case 82931 
Filed January 24th. 1883. 


TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. 


eels j 

Be it known that T, "“dwird 4. Johnson, of “law York City, 
in the County and State of Naw York, have invented a eartain new 
and useful Improvement in flactrie Telephonn Transmitters, of 
which the following is a specification; 

The object. T have in view is to produee a simple and 
efficient telaphone transmitter for transmitting articulate speach 
transforming the sound waves into precisely similar slactrical 
Waves. 

The invention consists in a tharmally operating instru- 
ment, a condueting material of great thermo ealactrie capacity, 
b3ing interpolatod in the cirenit and setting up by the impact of 
tna sound waves a tharmal action which transforms tho cirenit into 
electrical waves corresponding precisely with the sonnd waves. 

‘The material of great thermo electric capacity forms 
on? 2lectrode of the instrument, and makes surfaces contact with 
another electrode, the two electrodes baing Preferably raduced 
at the ends so as to have a small contact area and offer greater 
resistances at that point to’ sha passage of the current producing 
# onesntration of haat at the contacts. 

For tha thermo-slectric natsrial, I prefar to use the 
metalloid telluriun. ‘ 

The two slectrodes or ths contact surfaces $hereof may bo 
formed of tellurium: but the best results are obteinad by forming 
a true thermo-alectrie pile, the tellurium deing opposed by a 
twetal or condueting material differing tharefrom in thermo elec 
tric properties. Lead and tin have baen found to ansver wall for 
Lhe purpose. 

Th3 active junctions of tha thermo 31 actric pile ara for- 
mad by tha contacts batvaen the tellurinm and the lead, tim or 
othr metal or conducting material. . 

This transmittar may be nsad withont a battery, the im 
pact of the sound waves causing the generation by the termo pile 
of salectriecal waves corrasponding precisely with the sound wavas: 
but for effectivenass I nse a battery the enrrent from which passas 
throngh the thermo-pile. Ry the impaet of tha sonnd wav9s, the 
thermo-pile iS caused to ganerats a currant Opposed to or flowing 
in the same direction as the battery current, and, by this action, 
the battery eurrent is thrown into electrical waves corrasponding 
Pracisely with the sound waves. 

A telephone transmitter embodying tha invantion is shown 
in ths accompanying drawing, in which! 

Figura 1, is a sectional view of a for of transmittoar 
having on? thermal sontact. 

Figure 2, a view shoving two thermal contacts; and 

Figur3s 3 and 4 views of a modified form of instrument 





~. 


2 
having two and thrve thermal contacts. 

A is a snitable frame carrying a snitable diaphragm RB 
and having a ronth piece B 

fo ~ha eantar of the diaphragm, is securad an alectrode 
b of lead, tin, or other suitable metal or econdueting material, 
and in line with bis an electrode ¢ of tne metalloid tellurium. 

The two slactrodes maka surface contact and ara raducad 
in size at thair meeting ands so as to have a small contact a@raae 

The tallurium electrode « is hala by a clamping ringjde + 
carried by a spring 2 sacurad to or supported from thea cass or 
frame Ae The pressiire of tha electrodes is adjusted by a sat 
screw f bearing against a rubber eushion g on the spring 2 

The eireuit connections 1,2 ar3 arranged so that the 
current passes through tha alectrodes bh, &- 

In figure 2, thera are two tharinal contacts, laad or tin 
el yetrodas bah! and tellurium electrodes ¢, ec! being used, and 


clanping rings gd ga/springs 2,ge'and set screws £ f£ibeing employed. 

One cireuit connection is made with the spring @/so 
that the enrrent will pass through all the electrodes. 

In tha canter clamping ring @ tho talluriun and lead or 
tin electrodes ara surfaced to baar upon gach other throughout 
their entirs sectional area and may ba fixed or soldered together. 

Instvad of having thas ot screw f bear aguinst a spring 
eatrying on» dactrode, it may b2 arranged in line with the el- 
actrodes and forea them directly together as shown in figure 3, 
wherein a set sero f passes through the bridge piece he 

Two thermal contacts ar 3 shown in figure 3, the tel- 
lurium electrode ¢/baing carried the screw f. 

In figure 4, there are threes terminal contacts, extra 
electrodes b*c%of lead or tin and tellurium being employ ed. 

In the instrumants show in figures 3 and 4 one circuit 
eonnsaction is made with thea bridge psics h, so thatt the current 
will pass through all the slectrodes. 


What I claim is 

First. The mathod of transforming sound waves into 
electrical waves in the transinission of articnlate speech, which 
consists in producing electrical waves corrasponding with the 
sound waves by tha thermal action dane to ths impact of the sound 
waves, substantially as set forth. 

Second. A thermally op grating talephone transmitter, 
sunstantially as set forth. 

third. Tn a telephonic transmitter, the combination of 
an electrodes formed of conducting material having a great therino 
elactrie capacity, with another slactrods making « contact there- 
with, substantially as set forthe 

Fourth. In a telephonic transmitter, a therm slactric 
pile construct 3d and arranged to ba made active by tha impact of 
tha sound waves, substantially as set forthe 

Fifth In a telephonic transmitter, the int 3rpolation 
in the eirenit of the metalloid telluriun, substantially as sat 
forth.

a, 
Dear Sir? . ip 


. I called last week upon Mr Talbott, Secretary 
and .Manager of the Railway Exhibition to be hald here in 
May and June of this year, 

My call was with the view of ascertaining whether 
it wovnld be profitable for this company to go into the 
exhibition with the Fdison hight. . aha aa . 

. I find that nearly all the prominent. electric 
light companies in the country. intend doing s0, including 
the Swan and Maxim, ; , 

This exhibition is to be of national importance 
and exhibits from all over this and foreign countries will 
be represented in it. 

In my conversagion with Mr Talbott, he made some 
inquiries pertaining to your electrical. railway. 

He said Mr Adams, connected with the exhibition, 
was now iin New York and would call on Maj Raton and you 
relative to your exhibiting: the railway. 

There have been several applications to put in 
electric railways, . but the management prefers to gsive you 
the most: prominent postition if you are disposed to avaii 
yourself .of it. a 

In the main building there is a gallery extending 
around the structure which can be seen in the diagram 
sent herewith. 

They are disposed to place at your disposal this 
gallory for the purpose of exhibiting the railway. 

The distance around tho gallery is such that he 
thinks a charge could be made to parties who wihb to 
enjoy the privilege of a first ride on an clectric railway 
train, and. the receipts would be sufficient to defray the 
eXpensesys 

Personally, 2 am inclined to the same opinion 
provided the matter was managed with sufficient enterprise, 

I could not give any positive asdurance that you 
would care to go into the exhibition, but promised to 
state the case to you fully.

Every inch of space in tho main building is oc- 
cupied and an annex fully as large as the main building 
is being orected. : 

Unless you do s®mething of this kind or there 
is some co-operation by the New York Company, with us, we 
probably shall not exhibit the light. 

Our territory is so Jimited and the henefits to 
be derived from the exhibit so wide spread that we do 
not feel like incurring tho expense without some co-opera- 
tion from New Vork,. ,

Mr, gThomas Fdison, 


G5 5th Avenuo, Ne Ve 


ioe 
Dear Sir: 
Replying to your favor of the 2th will say, 


our officers are favorably inclined toward making an ex- 


hibit of the Fdison Tight at the Railway Fxhibition here 
one of the new 4H dynamos can be had in time 
for the purposeée 

If yon determine to exhibit the electric railway 
there would be no question about our company putting in 
the Jight. 
If there is room on the balcony for your track 
and you ¢an send the Menlo Park outft here ' with com- 
petent men to put it up T could manage the business 
part of the enterprise. 

Tt think we could also satisfactorily explain the 


principles upon which the railway is operated and its 


economy. 
LI believe the receipts from an electric railway 


located in the balcofy referred to would more than pay 


the expenses incurred. 
, I made the Phonograph exhibit ‘in this city pay 


for over six months and an electric railway is necessarily 


-a much more taking thing. 


: The main object of the exhibition would be to 
make’ the people familiar with what you are doing, but 
if it could at the same time be made self sustaining 
that 1 think would be much better. aa : 

This railway exposition is going to be an_ enor- 
mous affair and it will be a Jong time before you wil} 
have an opportunity to attract such universa] attention 
to your electric railway. 


Sincerely yours,

Lonpon, 15th January, 1883. 


Sr, 
In sending yon the accompanying Notice, calling an 
Extraordinary General Meeting of the Members of the Company on Wednesday, 
the 24th January, 1883, I am instructed by the Board to explain the object 


in view. 


The Directors have been informed of the payment to their Bankers in 
Bombay of the bulk of the purchase-money due by the Bombay Telephone 
Company (Limited), and they desired to declare an Interim Dividend, 
pending the preparation of the accounts, to the 31st December, 1882, which 
will still take some time. 


The Solicitors, however, advise that, as the Articles of Association at 
present stand, the Directors have not the power to pay Interim Dividends or 
instalments on account of dividends. Hence the proposal to add an Article, 
to be numbered 792, and to amend Article 82. 


“The proposed altoration in the Articles as regards Warrants is “of au 


purely formal character, and requires no special comment. 


As no other business will come before the Meeting, I enclose a form 
of proxy, which it may be convenient for you to use, in which case please 
fill it in and return it, so as to reach me not later than the morning of the 
22nd instant. 

I am, Sir, 
Your obedient Servant, 


W. G. HALL, 


Secretary.

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS 


OF THE 


UNITED TELEPHONE COMPANY, LIMITED. 








36, CoLEMAN STREET, 
Lonvon, E.C., 28¢4 February, 1883. 


Dear Sir, 

‘The Board of Directors, in their Circular of the 24th of May last, gave to the Shareholders 
a short history of the result of the litigation which had taken place up to that date on the Company's 
Patents. In Scotland the Company had obtained Judgment in its favour both on Edison's Patent for 
the Carbon Transmitter and on Bell's Patent for the Magneto ‘Telephone. In England a similar 
decision had been obtained in favour of the Company under Bell’s Patent, but a technical objection 
to the validity of Edison's Patent had been upheld by Mr. Justice Fry, and under these circumstances, 
although the Hunning’s ‘Transmitter manufactured’ and sold by the Defendants was held to be 


within Edison’s Specification, an Injunction was refused. 


‘Lhe Directors, on a careful consideration of the circumstances of the case, came to the conclusion 
that an immediate application for a “ Disclaimer” was desirable. Although they had good reason to 
hope that Mr. Justice Fry’s decision on this technical point would not be sustained by the Court of 
Appeal, they did not forget that during the whole time the Appeal was pending an adverse decision 
would be standing against them, and that during that time they would be unable to restrain the 
manufacture and sale of infringing instruments; whereas an application for a Disclaimer, if promptly 
made, would be heard before the Long Vacation, and, the blot upon the Patent once cured, Mr. Justice 
Fry's ‘decision would stand in all points in- favour of j the: Company.’ The riccessary Petition for 
leave to “disclaim” was therefore at once lodged, and’ on the 2gth of July the application was 
granted’ by the Attorney-Gericial, and the necessary “ Disclaimer” was filed on the 16th of August. 





By the terms of the Attorney-General’s fiat protection was given to transmitters manufactured 
fier to the 29th of July by certain persons who opposed the application, but the number of instru- 
ments so protected is not large. Protection was also given to contracts Jond Jide entered into 
by the opponents for the manufacture of transmitters before the 2gth of July, and under this proviso 
an attempt is being made to claim protection for a large number of instruments for the manufacture 
of which veda? contracts are stated to have, been made. ‘Lhe. Directors question the dond fides of 
these alleged contracts, and they have taken the necessary steps to have the point determined 


by the Attorney-General, 


The Disclaimer having been filed, the Directors withdrew their appeal from Mr. Justice Fry's 
decision. Upon the Patent as disclaimed the decision was entirely in the Company's favour, and no 
reason therefore existed for bringing it under the review of the Court of Appeal. Proceedings 
have since been taken under the Patent as amended against several persons infringing the Patent, and 
in every case the Defendants have submitted to judgment and paid the costs of the proceedings. 

Messrs. Harrison, Cox-Walker & Co., against whom an injunction was granted for infringment of 
the Bell Patent in May last, lodged an appeal against this decision, which came on for hearing on the 
28th of January last, before the Master of the Rolls, Lord Justice Lindley and Lord Justice Bowen. 
Atter a most patient hearing extending over nine days (nearly seven of which were occupied by the 
Appellants), the Court gave an unanimaiis decision in favour of the Company, upholding Mr. Justice 


F'ry’s decision, and dismissing the appeal with costs, 


There remains, of course, the possibility of an appeal to the House of Lords, but, even 
should such an appeal be made, the Directors feel great confidence that a Patent which has been 
unsuccessfully attacked on three different occasions, which has been under consideration by the 
Courts for thirty-three days, and which has been supported by the decisions of two Judges of Virst 
Instance, and of three Judges of Appeal, is not likely to be broken down if brought liefore the 
ultimate Court of Appeal. : 


The Company has obtained injunctions against the following Persons and Firms for infringing 
one or more of its Patents :— 


ALEXANDER MACLEAN + Of Edinburgh. Enwin Butter ‘ + Of Liverpool. 
M. Tuner & Sons... ,, London. W.Haiys 6 0, | Birmingham. 
HARRISON, Cox-WALKER & Co. » Datlington. F. Hespen & Co. , «5, Bradford. 


Orme & Co. . * . + 4 London, H.& E. J. Darr + *+ 4, London. 
Cox &. WinLiaMSoN . 0. |, Plymouth. . 

..Jn other cases apologies have been accepted, accompanied by undertakings to discontinue 
the manufacture or sale of infringing instruments. c , , , 


The Directors, while congratulating the Sharcholders upon the successful manner in which 


their Patents have been. upheld both in England and Scotland, think the present.a favourable 


opportunity to give a few figures illustrative of the progress of the Company. 


The number of Exchange Subscribers to the London system was—

» 28th 
» 28th 


1882 
1883 


845

1882, and of 1,036 Subscribers for the corresponding period between 1882 and 1883. 


The gross Income from London Rentals alone has now reached £60,000 per annum, and 


the annual value of the unexecuted orders in hand—which will be added day by day to the Revenue 


of the Company as the lines are completed—is to-day about £5,000. The Company is receiving 


on an average orders each day of the annual value of about Stoo. 


As showing the use made of the Company’s Exchange system in London, the calls of the 


Subscribers on five days in the third week in February (omitting Saturdays and Sundays) for the past 


three years were as under +-—

REPORT 


OF THE DIRECTORS FOK THE YBAR ENDING 3ilst DHCEMBER, 1882, 


TO BE PRESENTED AT THE < 
THIRD ORDINARY ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE COMPANY, 
TO BE HELD AT THE , 


CITY TERMINUS HOTEL, CANNON STREET, 


IN THE CITY OF LONDON, 


On Wednesday, the 80th day of MAY, 1885, at Twelve o’clock noon. 


, The Directors herewith submit to the Shareholders Balunce Sheet and Profit and - 


Loss Account for the year ending 31st December, 1882. 


The Company has now in operation, or is interested in, Ixchanges in Alexandria, 
Cairo, Calcuttn, Madras, Bombay, Kurrachee, Rangoon, Colombo, Singapore, Hong Kong, 
Shanghai and the Hawaiian Islands. 


At the date of the last report the number of subscribers, including ‘those in Honolulu, 
using the Company’s Lines, was 409. There are now, 1,098 subscribers to Exchanges 
and Private Lines, so that during the year the total increase has thus been, in xchange 


and Private Lines, 689 subscribers, an improvement of upwards of 160 per cent. 


Tt will be seen from the Accounts that after setting aside, under Article 80 of the 
Articles of Association, the sum of £7,000, which may hereafter be applied to meet 
possible claims under guarantees, there remains a net profit of £6,358 14s, 8d. for the 
year, in addition to the amount standing to the credit of the Suspense Profit Account, 
representing this Company’s interest, of 13,680 shares of Rs. 25 each in the Bombay 
Telephone Company, Limited, equal, at 1s. 8d. per Rupee xchange, to £28,500. 


An interim dividend of 24 per cent. has already been distributed, and the Directors 
recommend a further dividend of 23 per cent., making a total distribution on the Ordinary 
Shares of 5 per cent., free of Income Tax, for the year. After providing for this dividend 
there will remain an amount of £709 4s. 8d. to be carried over to the credit of Profit and 


‘Loss Account for the current year, in addition to the Suspense Profit. Account above 


referred to, which will hereafter be dealt with. 


Under Article 65 of the Company's Articles, no change in the constitution of the 
Board takes place till the Ordinary Meeting in 1884.

EGYPT. 

The Company’s business was entirely suspended from the date of the massnere in Aloxandria, on the 
11th June, 1882, until after the battle of Tel-el-Kebir, fought on tho 10th September. 

The Alexandria Exchange was almost entirely destroyed, and a claim has been preforred to the 
Egyptian Indemnity Commission for the damage done. 

The Cairo Exchange was not materially injured. : % 4 

The Company's business in Egypt was transferred on tho 81st January, 1888, to the Telephone 
Company of Egypt, Limited, the consideration being £60,000 in 12,000 fully paid up Ordinary Shares nnd 
£20,000 in 4,000 Deferred Shares of the Egyptian Company. Tho terms, however, may be subject to modifi- 
cation as far as the Deferred Shares are concerned, 

The total number of Exchange and Private Line Subscribers in Alexandria and Cairo is now 298. 


INDIA. 


BOMBAY.—As respects Bombay, the sale to the local Company has beon completed, and the 
management there is now in the hands of the Local Board of Directors. 

Tho latest Returns represent a total of 182 Subscribers in Bombay and Kurracheo, including private 
lines, The Revenue is capable of large increase without commensurate addition to expenses. 

CALCUTTA.—In this city a Company has also beon formed to embrace the wholo of the Bengal 
Presidency, The Local Directors are all men of high standing. 

The Oriental Company will receive in payment of its rights Rs. 180,000 in cash; Rs. 250,000 in A or 
Preferred Shares, and Rs, 880,000 in Deferred Shares, less certain commissions. Othor terms are similar to 
those given in the caso of the Bombay Company, except that in addition, a small per centago is to be laid usido 
yearly to form a Reserve. . 

Tho latest returns give a total number of Subscribers to Exchange and Private Lincs as 120. 

A Cablo has been Iaid across the Hooghly to Howrah, and in this suburb a considerable number of 
Subsoribors may bo looked for without any inaterial increase in expenses. 

In MADRAS business has not progressed as the Board had hoped, but this was owing to a special 
cause. The lines were originally constructed with iron wire, which becamo corroded by the peculiar influenco of 
climate, and tho service was consequently not good. ‘The lines nro now being reconstructed with phosphor 
bronze wire, and the service is ulready much more satisfactory. The number of Subscribers is 28, but with a 
botter services an increase may be anticipated. 

RANGOON has increased rapidly, thoro being now 64 Subserlbors. ( 

An attempt is being made to form na Local Company for Burmah, the result of which the Directors 
do not yet know, but whether success results or not as regards the formation of the Local Company, the 
business in itself is promising. 

In COLOMBO tho rovenue is small, but 2 recent telegram from the Agent in India indicates a 
considerable increaso as probable, ' 


STRAITS SETTLEMENT. © . 
In SINGAPORE the Exchange, which was acquired on 1st July, has worked well. 
There ave 48 Exchange Subscribors and 16 private lines. 


CHINA. 


Here results have been disappointing. ‘Tho Company was met with opposition in Shanghai, and the 
rate of subscription was cut down ‘to $50 per annum. . 

In HONG KONG the Local Government obliged tho Company to romove its pole lines from the streats 
and erect honso top fixtures, and this seriously iuterfored with the service. After some negotiation with tho 
Mutual Telephone Company, which opposed this Company in Shanghai and elsewhere, an agreement was 
come to, by which tho various interests were united in a Company called tho China and Japan Telephone 
Company Limited; cach interest taking payment in shares for its rights and outlay. Undor this arrangement 
the Oriental Telophone Company will yeccive £5,000 in fully paid up shares of the China Company for its 
rights in Hong Kong and Shanghai, besides shares for the value of capital outlay in construction, &e,

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS, 
FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30th APRIL, 1883, 
Presented to the Shareholders at the Turrp ANNUAL ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING of the Company, 
, to be held at the Ciry Terminus HoTEL, CANNON STREET, LONDON, 


On Tuesday, the 24th Iuly, 1883, at One o’clock p.m. 








ogee in = 5 pares : ea ie 
i 1. CAPITAL EXPENDITURE.—A reference to the Capital Account will show that up to tné“3uch April, 1883, the sum of 
! £86,582. 17s. '7d. has been expended upon the works in connection with the London and Provincial Exchanges, Private 


Lines, and the Stock of Instruments ; being £80,616. 8s. 11d. more than the outlay shewn in the last balance sheet. 





2. REVENUE.—The Revenue Accounts show that the receipts of the Company from all sources properly attributable to the year 
have been £64,826. 1s. 8d., as against £42,624, 15s. 3d. in the preceding year, or an increase of £22,201, 6s, 5d. 


| 
3-5 WORKING EXPENSES.—The Working Expenses for the year have been £26,484, 7s. 10d., as against 
| , £19,550. 4s. 8d. for the preceding year, and £14,678. 8s. Od. for the year ending goth April, 1881, or an 
j increase of £6,884. 88. 7d. for the year ending goth April, 1883, over the preceding year. 

4. DEPRECIATION, &c.—During the past 3 years the amount of £19,086. 1s. 5d. has been written off for renewal, 
I : maintenance and depreciation of the London Exchange System, including depreciation of Lease, Office Furniture, &c., and 
j Instruments in the Provinces, of which amount the sum of £11,939. 118. 6d. is in respect of the year ending 3oth April, 1883. 


No amount has been written off for depreciation (if any) of the book value of the Patents and Goodwill, it being 
considered a question which may fairly be left over for future consideration, and in this the Auditors concur. 


i 5. DIVIDEND AND ISSUE OF CAFITAL.—tThe balance of Net Revenue Account is £28,814. 48. 8d,, and the 
Directors recommend the distribution of a dividend of 6 per cent. for the year, leaving a balance of £4,814, 48. 3d. to 
be carried forward. ‘ = 


ISSUE OF CAPITAL. They have also determined to issue to the Shareholders, pro rata to their respective holdings, the 
remaining 20,000 £5 shares at £2 per share premium, payable by instalments as under:— 
\ : 4. tos. on allotment, 
41. tos. on rst October, 1883, 
and the remainder by calls to be made (subject to one month’s notice) from time to time as tequired to meet the extension of 
the Company’s business. 





6. PROGRESS OF THE BUSINSSS.—The Board hope that the Proprietors will find in the above figures evidence that the 
‘business is being established and developed in a satisfactory manner, due regard being had to the novelty and difficulty of the 
work of construction and extension. In London the number of exchange subscribers on the 3oth April, 1881, was 914; onthe 
3oth April, 1882, 1,673 ; and on the goth April, 1883, 2,563. Since that date additional subscribers have been connected 
with the system, which is extending from day to day. 


The Private Line business has increased from 186 Lines on the 3oth April, 1881, to 366 Lines in 1882, and to 576 
in 1883 ; the rentals for the past year being more than double the value as at 3oth April, 1882, : ; a 








s 


spore a 


7. RELATIONS WITH THE POST OFFICE.—The Board are happy to report that their relations with the Post Office continue 


to be of a friendly character. Since the date of the last Report the Post Master General has made certain concessions with 
respect to the establishment of “ Trunk Lines” for the purpose of connecting Telephone Exchange subscribers in different 
Towns, and, although these concessions have not been so full as the Company had hoped to obtain, they may nevertheless be 
accepted as an indication ofthe intention of the authorities to deal fairly with the development of telephonic communication, 
as circumstances from time to time manifest its growing importance. 


8. LITIGATION AS TO -PATENTS,—During the past year the Board have been compelled to incur considerable expense and 


assume great responsibility in defending the valuable patents of the Company, and have by the issue of a special circular under 
date 28th February, 1883, kept the Proprietors informed on this subject. 


The Board need hardly say that they have no alternative but to vindicate the rights of the Company in the case of all 
infringement, however reluctant they may be to incur legal costs, or to appear to press hardly upon individuals. The result of 
the important proceedings recently brought to issue is, as the Board are advised, to ensure to the Company the legitimate benefit 
of the inventions acquired by them, and only brought into practical use by the large expenditure of money, time and labour, 
which has attended the establishment of the valuable aid to the commercial and social requirements of the public afforded by 


. 


the Telephone. 


9. DISTRICT COMPANIES.—The Board, following the policy already adopted of making over to persons locally interested 


the management of the Telephone business within the limits of particular Districts, conditionally upon the formation of Dis- 
trict Companies affiliated to the parent Company, have to ask the Shareholders to confirm the Agreement in relation to “ The 


South of England Telephone Company, Limited.” 


The general basis of the Agreement under which the business is transferred is the repayment to the United Company of 
all sums expended by them in the District up to the date of the transfer of the business, one-half of the Ordinary Capital of the 
District Company, and the further payment of Annual Royalties upon the Telephones used. 


10. RETIRING DIRECTORS.—In accordance with the Articles of Association, two Members of the Board, Messrs. Dillwyn 


Parrish and W. Cuthbert Quilter, will retire at this Meeting, Being eligible, they will offer themselves for re-election. 


tr. RETIRING AUDITORS.—The Auditors, Messrs. Quilter, Ball & Co., and Messrs Price, Waterhouse & Co., also retire, and 


will be eligible for re-election. 


12, PROXIES.—A Form of Proxy is enclosed for the signature of Shareholders wie may be unable to attend the Meeting; and gi 


36, 


requested that the-Prokiestndy Ge- Sigiidd and “retitfied to ‘the ‘Secretary, 36, Coleman Street, EC, so that he 
them not later than Saturday, the 2zst.inst. ‘

Dear Sirt- 
Referring to the attached cablegram, dv you know 
anything about a gs who Larteque is? 
Ye do not understand it here further than that the 
Generale Telephone Company of Paris appear to want some carbons 
for telephones, and do not know where to order een: You will 
notice that the literal tomidsavies of the message is “bottles of 
coal,” Could not this word “bottles”? have been mutilated, and 
originally been “buttons”, and then the translation would be 


“earbon buttons,7?
